Thursday Thoughts - 05/19/2022

In this short newsletter, I share the most interesting things that I’ve read, heard, and/or watched over the past week.

What I’ve Watched:

Commencement 2022: Ignoring Your Way to Success - Dan Pink

Dan Pink outlines the path to a life well lived in this speech. He found four universal regrets from his research. From these four regrets, he came out with four ways to live the good life:

  • Do the work
  • Take the chance
  • Do the right thing
  • Reach out

His philosophy behind a life without regret reminds me of the Deep Life proposed by Cal Newport.

What I Listened To:

Chillhop Radio

This playlist contains 300 songs or 13 and a half hours of lofi hip hop music. I listen to this while working or writing. It provides a great vibe for getting things done.

What I’m Pondering:

“If I didn’t already own this, how much would I spend to buy it?”

Greg McKeown, Essentialism
